Biologi     Ordlista (t.ex. epibenthic)

More or less stationary in inshore coastal waters to moderate depth. Feeds on benthic invertebrates, mainly crustaceans. Common length is 60-66 cm TL. Males mature at ca. 42 cm TL (Ref. 114953). Ovoviviparous. Produces small litters of 1-3 pups (Ref. 114953).

Life cycle and mating behavior Maturities | Reproduktion | Spawnings | Egg(s) | Fecundities | Larver

Exhibit ovoviparity (aplacental viviparity), with embryos feeding initially on yolk, then receiving additional nourishment from the mother by indirect absorption of uterine fluid enriched with mucus, fat or protein through specialised structures (Ref. 50449).

Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 115969): 25.1 - 28, mean 27.3 (based on 202 cells).
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804):  PD50 = 0.5000   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00295 (0.00151 - 0.00578), b=3.13 (2.96 - 3.30), in cm Total Length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).
Trofisk nivå (Ref. 69278):  3.8   ±0.4 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
